Package: devscripts
Version: 2.17.12
Severity: wishlist
Now that lintian complains (in pedantic mode) about trailing
whitespace in debian/changelog, it would be nice if Debian had an easy
tool that a maintainer use to handle this easily and accurately.
Since wrap-and-sort already removes trailing whitepspace from several
other files, I would appreciate if it would handle debian/changelog
too.
Then the lintian page could be updated to suggest
wrap-and-sort -f debian/changelog
since I think that would be easier to remember than the sed syntax.
